Hmm, it can be a nice copy paste job, since I didnt hear anything about England and Egypt uniting in the last 500 years http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Hehe, you mixed Colors in Multiplayer I see. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

ENGLISH TROOPS

Feudal and Chivalric Knights mixed. Or somewhat similar.

I did the same with English Troops, fighting in HRE-black:

NOTE: My first real Multiplayer Battle IIRC.
I did extremely... well. The first time that I got butchered by the Pope. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

But see, English Longbowmen, English Insignia and German black HRE banner.

LOL it is no copy paste. Neither are those mercenaries. This is a screenshot from a multiplayer battle. Basically my enemy was Englandm but somehow some of his units ended up with Egyptian shields. Also in an SP battle last night I attacked an Italian Genoese Sailors unit with a unit of Arab Infantry. The Genos ran for itm as i zoomed in I saw one of the Genos running along with the Arab infantry attacking his own mates LOL. I'm looking for the screenshot now, will post it.

Notice> this post is not meant to cause controversy, it is simplay a demonstrattion of a game bug. I thought it-s an interesting shot so I posted it.

Yep that's exactly it.

Suggestion: BTW you shud resize that screenie I think it will be too wide for most screens. I think the best size is about 600*400.

Uh - it is not a bug. You can decide with VI which color your troops are.

You can have Byzantine colored English Troops, the only thing that will stay is the three lion banner of the English.

EDIT: Sinan, I see - I hope I did not annoy too many modem users. I am getting paid by Samsung to demonstrate the advantages of 19-21 monitors. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

Mate, I think you misunderstandm me.

Please look at the first shot. You cannot choose to be English with Egyptian shields, complete with insignia can you ?

Longasc

06-07-2003, 21:36

Hm... I was German and hab Byzantine Shields, I think the same applies to the Egyptians too. Just fiddle around a bit before starting Multiplayer, perhaps you can confuse the enemy by looking nearly identical. Hide in Woods and confuse him. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

Apparently ypu can. I just tested it.

I chose the English, and picked egyptian colours. And sure enough the Egyptian insignia was on their shields.

I have done this before, but somehow this minor, but important detail, have always missed me. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/joker.gif

(think I need some slee, I mean they aren't exactly small those shields now, are they. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif )

wow I gotta test this... this sounds very weird

Well, I'm having a bit of trouble getting those screenies to display on my PalmPilot...but I can see enough to know that something is very weird there.

Is it only England, or other factions, too?

Shahed

06-08-2003, 02:13

Personally on the Egypt-English issue in my very humble opinion it is a bug. It makes no sense to be able to choose another factions shields and banners and a different factions units, to me.

Right what are your thoughts on this one ?
Look at Mr.Treason there.

Sorry Kukri I missed your post earlier, scrolled right past it. Should I email the screenies to you ? I can do that right now if you like ?

I have seen it only with English at the moment IIRC.

06-08-2003, 03:06

Thanks, SeljukSinan, but no. I was only joking...my PalmPilot can't even display 1/8th of a regular webpage, much less a giant screenie like Longasc's. I meant to tease him.

If this mod'ing gig doesn't pan out, maybe I could be a stand-up comic. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

06-08-2003, 14:23

I think this is not a bug, it's Sinan

Take a look, he even dares to show us proof of his treacheries

Wonder how he survived that, maybe he is a good runner... http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

Hehe the genoese guy is probably trying to attack the almohads which are trying to attack the genoese main force. And that a nice little illusion there hehheehe. Once again, amusing stuff, thanks for sharing Sinan. BTW , where can i see the screenshots I took after taking em? http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

I have some interesting screenies whereby the Almos have infiltrated my Russkies, but I have nowhere to host them.

Can I e-mail them to someone?

Balamir: look in the MTW folder labeled: TGA's.

ArseClown: I'll host a couple for you. jim@jimcee.com

Just thought some people may like a squiz at this, even if just for a laugh. (Anyone who laughs at this, though, is sick, sardonic and twisted http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif )

THIS is what happened when I re-trained one of my boyar units, just a few turns into the game:
